5 Dry Cleaners in Johor Bahru That Will Keep Your Garments Spotless and Stylish
I still remember the day I discovered the wonders of dry cleaning. It was after a hearty meal at one of Johor Bahru’s amazing dim sum restaurants when I realised that I spilt soy sauce in my favourite shirt—the McLaren of my wardrobe if you will.
When I got home, I immediately searched for clothes cleaning services in JB and low and behold, a dry cleaning place was on the top of the results page. Since then, I’ve been a firm believer in dry cleaning, and with JB’s selection of reputable services, I consider myself lucky.
With that being said, I’ve tried a handful of places that offer dry cleaning services and I can say that I know which ones are worth checking out So if you’re looking for a reliable place that can handle all your dirty laundry (literally), here are the best dry cleaners in Johor Bahru:
How much does a dry cleaning service cost in Johor Bahru?
Dry cleaning services would typically cost from RM8 to RM20 or even more. The cost varies on factors such as the type of clothing as well as the inclusions that the establishment offers with their dry cleaning.
1. Tidy Laundry Dryclean Expertise
Address: 8, Jalan Austin Perdana 2/24, Taman Austin Perdana, 81100 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia
Phone: +60 16-591 9760
Business Hours: Daily from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM
Tidy Laundry is one of our top picks because it offers some of the most affordable dry cleaning services in Johor Bahru. It also helps that they hold regular promotions on their services such as slashed prices of up to 50% on dry cleaning and more.
We also love how they offer a complete set of services that go above and beyond simple dry cleaning. For instance, they offer wedding gown cleaning, which is hard to find (especially at an affordable price point!)
From a single experience with them, we immediately notice their expertise, which ranges across several types of fabrics. There was a time when we took a shot at having a silk dress dry-cleaned, and they absolutely nailed it.
Lastly, the friendly staff members here are extremely infectious with the good vibes they bring to the table.
Our only gripe was that they’re a bit hard to reach via their official WhatsApp, as they sometimes take too long to respond to our messages.
Customer Reviews
Glad I trusted them with my laundry
“I am so pleased with the quality of the dry cleaning they did for my bridal jumpsuit. Am glad I trusted them with my laundry. Have been to other laundry places in Johor Bahru and have been hit and miss, but you can see people here take pride in their work.
Competitive pricing. If you want to have a trustworthy place to do your laundry, this is the place to go! Recommended to everyone.”

2. Dr. Dobi
Address: 11, Jalan Sejahtera 11, Taman Desa Skudai, 81300 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia
Phone: +60 19-785 2074
Business Hours:
- Monday to Friday: 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM
- Saturday: 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM
Right off the bat, we noticed that Dr Dobi prioritises convenience because of their reliable pick-up and delivery services. It’s a total game changer, as it eliminates the need to leave the house for those times when you’re too lazy to head out.
They’ve been around since 2016 but have cemented themselves as a mainstay in the scene thanks to their reasonable prices.
One of the things we love about this place is their use of modern equipment, which we immediately noticed the first time we visited their store. Furthermore, the overall place is in pretty good condition, which is an instant A+.
We also wanted to highlight their expert staff members, as we’ve heard nothing but great things about them. Several of their past clients whom we interviewed highlighted the specialists’ expertise regarding different fabrics.
However, we do wish that they could extend their operating hours because, at the time of writing, they’re only open until 1:00 PM on Saturdays and close entirely on Sundays.
Customer Reviews

3. Cove Laundry
Address: 19, Jln Perjiranan 15/1, Bandar Dato Onn, 81100 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia
Phone: +60 13-736 3653
Business Hours: Daily from 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM
Cove Laundry is one of the most well-known laundromats in JB so naturally, we had to take a closer look. One of the first things we noticed during our first visit was its modern equipment so we immediately knew that our clothes would be in good hands.
Furthermore, we love how they offer a wide variety of high-quality laundry services, from washing to drying, ironing and of course, dry cleaning.
As soon as we got our clothes back, we noticed two important things. First, their quick turnaround time was quite impressive, considering that they encounter a lot of clients every day.
Second, our clothes were left smelling extra fresh. This is such a highlight for us because so many laundromats use the same chemical-smelling cleaning agent that we’re not fans of.
The only thing we didn’t like about this laundromat was their slightly pricier rates compared to other establishments in the area. Though they can be justified with the quality you’ll be getting, a lot of people may not be willing to pay extra.
Customer Reviews
Very satisfied
“Excellent service. The staff will send a message after receiving laundry clearly stating the services and pricing and amount paid. When your laundry is ready you will receive a message that it is ready for collection. Very efficient.
Our clothes are washed and folded in the same size and packed up so neatly. Satisfied with dry cleaning too. Although pricing for services is pricey compared to other laundry, we are very satisfied with the services provided.”

“I recently sent my company vest here for cleaning, and I was thoroughly impressed with their service. The vest was cleaned efficiently, returned in excellent condition and smelled wonderfully fresh.
The expedited service was much appreciated. Highly recommend for their good service.”

4. Rainbow Laundry JB
Address: 26, Jalan, Taman Pelangi, 80400 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia
Phone: +60 17-737 1515
Business Hours: Open 24 hours
Rainbow Laundry offers one of the most convenient dry cleaning services in Johor Bahru thanks to their seamless process. They offer an accessible pick-up and delivery service that can be arranged easily via phone call and the best part is that they’re open for 24 hours!
We also love how you can ask them to both iron and fold your clothes for you when you avail their dry cleaning services. Our confidence in their services grew even further when we met the specialists they have on deck, as they’ve been doing this for several years!
Another thing we love is its accessible location. There are even hidden and underrated cafes and restaurants so you can have a comfortable place to stay while waiting for your clothes.
One thing they could improve upon, however, is their washing machines. Granted that this list is about dry cleaning, making sure that every machine in the establishment is operational is still a huge deal.
Customer Reviews
Very satisfied with the service provided
“In a good location where there are kopitiams and Korean food. We chose the 10kg machine warm mode, which cost 6 tokens for around 26min. The dryer is 4 tokens for around 24min.
We hung around walking about this area and ate lunch while waiting. Detergent is auto-provided with the machine… It’s open 24 hours and has different machines based on weight. Will def be back here again for our holiday laundry!
Our clothes are washed and folded in the same size and packed up so neatly. Satisfied with dry cleaning too. Although pricing for services is pricey compared to other laundry, we are very satisfied with the services provided.”

Simple and easy
“Simple and easy to operate, would be nice if there is information on the brand and type of washing detergent used by the machine.
8 rm for warm washing for 14kg and another 5 rm for 25mins of the dryer”

5. HaychQue | Laundry
Address: 9, Jln Nibong 10, Taman Daya, 81100 Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia
Phone: +60 13-716 2800
Business Hours: Daily from 7:30 AM to 11:30 PM
HaychQue was recommended to us by a friend when we needed to have a particular gown washed. Because of its delicate material, we had to opt for the laundromat’s dry cleaning service and it’s safe to say that we were more than impressed!
For starters, we loved the fresh and floral fragrance of the blouse once it was returned to us, as it wasn’t too strong. Furthermore, the material itself still looked brand new, which we didn’t doubt in the first place since their specialists were endorsed to us beforehand.
During our initial inquiry, we were impressed to see the variety of laundry services they offered, from washing to drying, ironing and more. Additionally, the shopkeeper told us that they can also do alterations and repairs, which we thought was pretty impressive.
The only downside here is with their washing machines, as some of the models are a bit outdated. Furthermore, some of the coin machines can sometimes be faulty but thankfully, the staff members are always there to lend a hand and make sure your money is returned.
Customer Reviews

“Very good service by them!! WhatsApp them for pricing was very fast response and also help me to arrange the pickup on the same day itself! Price is very reasonable! Quality of wash also good and smell nice!
Will definitely use their service again! Thank you team HaychQue! Keep up the good work!!

Customer service was excellent
“This is my first time doing laundry in Malaysia, and I found HaychQue through a Google search. Their customer service has been excellent. I accidentally inserted coins into a dryer that was under maintenance.
I quickly reached out to HaychQue via the WhatsApp link on their website, and their customer service responded promptly, guiding me through the refund process. Despite their washers and dryers being a bit older, I highly recommend this laundromat.”
